ABSTRACT

This study aims to explore the auditory response characteristics of the thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN) in awake mice during auditory information processing, so as to deepen the understanding of TRN and explore its role in the auditory system. By in vivo electrophysiological single cell attached recording of TRN neurons in 18 SPF C57BL/6J mice, we observed the responses of 314 recorded neurons to two kinds of auditory stimuli, noise and tone, applied to mice. The results showed that TRN received projections from layer six of the primary auditory cortex (A1). Among 314 TRN neurons, 56.05% responded silently, 21.02% responded only to noise and 22.93% responded to both noise and tone. The neurons with noise response can be divided into three patterns according to their response time: onset, sustain and long-lasting, accounting for 73.19%, 14.49% and 12.32%, respectively. The response threshold of the sustain pattern neurons was lower than those of the other two types. Under noise stimulation, compared with A1 layer six, TRN neurons showed unstable auditory response (P < 0.001), higher spontaneous firing rate (P < 0.001), and longer response latency (P < 0.001). Under tone stimulation, TRN's response continuity was poor, and the frequency tuning was greatly different from that of A1 layer six (P < 0.001), but their sensitivity to tone was similar (P > 0.05), and TRN's tone response threshold was much higher than that of A1 layer six (P < 0.001). The above results demonstrate that TRN mainly undertakes the task of information transmission in the auditory system. The noise response of TRN is more extensive than the tone response. Generally, TRN prefers high-intensity acoustic stimulation.

ABSTRACT

A chemical investigation on the fermentation products of Sanghuangporus sanghuang led to the isolation and identification of fourteen secondary metabolites (1-14) including eight sesquiterpenoids (1-8) and six polyphenols (9-14). Compounds 1-3 were sesquiterpenes with new structures which were elucidated based on NMR spectroscopy, high resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) data. All the isolates were tested for their stimulation effects on glucose uptake in insulin-resistant HepG2 cells, and cellular antioxidant activity. Compounds 9-12 were subjected to molecular docking experiment to primarily evaluate their anti-coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) activity. As a result, compounds 9-12 were found to increase the glucose uptake of insulin-resistant HepG2 cells by 18.1%, 62.7%, 33.7% and 21.4% at the dose of 50 μmol·L

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in Shandong province.Methods:The clinicopathological data of 2 886 NHL cases in Shandong Cancer Hospital from January 2002 to December 2017 were retrospectively analyzed, the clinicopathological characteristics of patients were summarized and compared with other regions in China and abroad.Results:The median age of all NHL cases was 52 years old (4-90 years old), and the ratio of male to female was 1.57∶1. The subtypes distribution analysis revealed that B-cell NHL (B-NHL) accounted for 66.7% (1 925 cases) of all cases and T-cell NHL (T-NHL) accounted for 27.3% (788 cases) of all cases. The common subtypes were diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (36.0%, 1 039/2 886), NK/T-cell lymphoma (8.8%, 254/2 886), follicular lymphoma (8.2%, 237/2 886) and peripheral T-cell lymphoma (7.4%, 214/2 886). Of all the cases, the nodal lymphomas accounted for 45.8% (1 322 cases) and the extra nodal lymphomas accounted for 54.2% (1 564 cases); there were 389 patients (13.5%) with stage Ⅰ, 678 patients (23.5%) with stage Ⅱ, 975 patients (33.8%) with stage Ⅲ, and 722 patients (25.0%) with stage Ⅳ. The distribution of NHL subtypes in Shandong province was consistent with the domestic multicenter study. However, T-NHL subtype ratio was significantly higher than the foreign studies.Conclusions:The overall incidence of NHL in Shandong province of China is dominated by middle-aged people, and the proportion of B-NHL is higher than that of T-NHL. The distribution of NHL subtypes in Shandong province of China are different from those in the European and American countries, but are roughly consistent with the domestic multicenter study.

ABSTRACT

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common gynecological reproductive endocrine and metabolic disorder disease. The clinical manifestations of PCOS are diversified, with and no ovulation, insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia and polycystic ovaries as the main pathological and physiological changes, which can lead to non-ovulation infertility and ovulatory dysfunction infertility, cause complications, such as amenorrhea, diabetes, lipid metabolism and glucose metabolism disorder, and endanger the long-term health of the body. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) does not have the name of this disease, and classifies PCOS to the category of "amenorrhea", "infertility" and "abdominal mass kidney" according to its clinical manifestations. Compared with western medicine, TCM has a unique view in treating the disease, and believes that the disorders of liver, kidney and spleen functions jointly affect the occurrence and development of the disease. According to the literature review, kidney-deficiency syndrome is the main syndrome type of this disease, the kidney-tonifying method has achieved a good effect in clinic. Besides, the drug use is flexible and diversified, and both primary and secondary symptoms are taken into consideration. However, in the clinical application process, the application of kidney-tonifying method in PCOS has been affected by the thinking mode of "kidney-tonifying medicine for male diseases" to some extent. In view of this, the therapeutic effect of kidney-tonifying drugs in the treatment of PCOS is preliminarily demonstrated from several aspects of the relationship between kidney deficiency and reproduction, pathogenesis of PCOS, clinical research and experimental research of PCOS, in the expectation of providing theoretical and practical supports for kidney-tonifying therapy for PCOS and other gynecological diseases.

ABSTRACT

Decoction pieces are the main body of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) clinical medication. With the modernization of TCM medication, TCM formula granules have gradually developed and begun to take shape. Although there are processing forms of TCM injection and oral liquid, they only account for a small part of TCM market and are mainly taken orally. However, when oral administration of lipid soluble ingredients is conducted, the dissolution is limited and the absorption is relatively small. In addition, it has side effects of stimulating gastrointestinal tract, resulting in low tolerance of patients. Although there are topical preparations made by water extraction and alcohol extraction, most of them are crude preparations with random dosage, which results in the waste of lipid soluble components to a certain extent. Most of the lipid soluble components of TCM have good biological activities, such as schisandrin b, tanshinone, methyl chlorogenic acid, etc., but there is no suitable medicinal form. To make the best use of "medicine", it is necessary to systematically study the lipid soluble components of TCM. On the basis of fairly mature extraction, separation and collection processes, a medicinal form with definite pharmacological effect and beneficial to its absorption is developed based on lipid soluble components. TCM essential oil has anti-aging, anti-dementia, anti-oxidation and other activities, which has been widely used in clinical, cosmeceuticals, health products and other fields. However, the effect of single essential oil is limited. Compatibility can not only enhance the efficacy and reduce toxicity, but also expand the application range of essential oil. Therefore, formula essential oil can be used as a new form of TCM, and mainly for external use, supplemented by internal use, to make up for the disadvantages of crude preparations and random dosing for external use of TCM, as well as the disadvantages of orally absorbed less and stimulated gastrointestinal tract, to meet the needs of clinical medication, faster, more accurate, better and stronger play the effect of lipid soluble components.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>Talaromyces (Penicillium) marneffei (TM) is an emerging dimorphic human pathogenic fungus that is endemic to Southeast Asia. TM mostly occurs as an opportunistic infection in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The objective of this study was to compare the clinical and laboratory parameters of patients with TM infections who were HIV-positive and HIV-negative and to assess therapies and outcomes.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>This was a retrospective analysis of 26 patients diagnosed with disseminated TM infection from September 2005 to April 2014 at Fujian Provincial Hospital, China.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Patients with TM infection tend to present with fever, weight loss, and anemia. The time from symptom onset to confirmed diagnosis was greater for HIV-negative patients (n = 7; median: 60 days, range: 14-365 days) than for HIV-positive patients (n = 19; median: 30 days, range: 3-90 days, Mann-Whitney U = 31.50, P= 0.041). HIV-negative patients were more likely to have dyspnea (57.1% vs. 5.3%, χ2 = 8.86, P= 0.010), low neutrophil count (Mann-Whitney U = 27.00, P= 0.029), high CD4 count (Mann-Whitney U = 0.00, P= 0.009), and high lymphocyte count (Mann-Whitney U = 21.00, P= 0.009). There were no significant differences in other demographic, clinical, or biochemical characteristics. Among all the patients, 12 HIV-positive patient and 1 HIV-negative patient received amphotericin and fluconazole treatment, 9 of whom improved, 1 died, 2 had kidney damage, 1 had hypokalemia due to exceeded doses.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>HIV-negative patients with TM infections tend to have a longer diagnostic interval, a higher percentage of dyspnea, higher levels of CD4 and lymphocytes, and lower neutrophil counts than TM infection in HIV-positive patients. Treatment programs with amphotericin and fluconazole are mostly effective.</p>

ABSTRACT

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths, with high morbidity and mortality, as well as poor prognosis in China and worldwide. Despite the recent advances in surgery, irradiation, chemotherapy, and targeted therapy, the curative effect of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in advanced cancer patients is unsatisfactory, and the five-year survival rate of patients remains low. Immunotherapeutic approaches, such as checkpoint inhibitors, active vaccination, and adoptive vaccination, have been given in-creasing attention for the treatment of patients with NSCLC. Results of phase I clinical trials show a higher remission rate, and the out-comes of phases II and III clinical trials are under exploration. This review provides an overview of the latest advances and challenges in immunotherapy for NSCLC.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To inquire into the influence of silencing HMGB1 expression by small interfering RNA (siRNA) on cell growth, proliferation, invasion and metastasis of colorectal cancer LoVo cells both in vitro and in vivo.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Lentivirus-mediated HMGB1 siRNA was transfected into LoVo cells to silence the HMGB1 expression. The HMGB1 mRNA and protein expression after siRNA transfection was detected by RT-PCR and Western blot. MTT assay was used to observe the cell proliferation and to draw a growth curve. Cell cycle was measured by flow cytometry. The ability of invasion and speed of cell migration were evaluated by transwell chamber invasion and cell scratch assay. The influence of HMGB1 silencing on the proliferation of LoVo cells in vivo was observed in LoVo tumor-bearing nude mice.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Lentivirus-mediated siRNA was successfully transfected into colorectal cancer cell line LoVo. The expression of HMGB1 mRNA and protein in the HMGB1-siRNA group were 0.24±0.04 and 0.21±0.03, respectively. Compared with the HMGB1-siRNA-Neg group (0.82±0.13, 1.15±0.18) and control group (0.93±0.15, 1.21±0.20), the difference was significant (P<0.05). MTT assay showed that the cell proliferation in the HMGB1-siRNA group was significantly inhibited when compared with that in the HMGB1-siRNA-Neg group and control group (P<0.05). Flow cytometry showed that the proliferation index (PI) of HMGB1-siRNA group was 38.27±1.32, significantly lower than 54.66±1.74 in the HMGB1-siRNA-Neg group and 57.43±1.29 in the control group (P<0.05). The transwell assay showed that the number of penetrated cells in the HMGB1-siRNA group was 14.0±3.5, significantly lower than 51.0±6.7 in the HMGB1-siRNA-Neg group and 68.0±5.3 in the control group (P<0.05). Similarly, the scrape wound recovered significantly slower in the HMGB1-siRNA group (83.61±23.21) µm than that in the other two groups (202.86±46.46) µm and (214.58±57.38) µm(P<0.05). The nude mouse xenograft tumor experiment showed that the final tumor volume was (521±34) mm3 in the HMGB1-siRNA group, significantly smaller than that in the HMGB1-siRNA-Neg group of (763±46) mm3 and control group of (802±51) mm3 (P<0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Lentivirus-mediated HMGBl-siRNA can effectively inhibit the HMGB1 expression in colorectal cancer LoVo cells both in vitro and in vivo. HMGB1 gene silencing can slow the growth of colorectal cancer cells, extend the cell proliferation cycle, decrease their invasion and migration, and significantly inhibit the growth of xenograft tumor in nude mice.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the expression level of high mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) in human colorectal cancer and its relation with different clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of colorectal cancer patients.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the HMGB1 expression in tissue samples of 86 colorectal cancer patients and 32 normal colorectal tissue samples. Positive rates of HMGB1 expression were compared among different clinicopathological characteristics. Relation of HMGB1 expression with survival was analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>HMGB1 expression was mainly in colorectal cancer cell nucleus, with a few appearance of co-expression in nucleus and cytoplasm. Positive rate of HMGB1 expression in normal tissues was significantly lower than that in colorectal cancers [9.4% (3/32) vs. 66.3% (57/86), P=0.000], and it was much higher in large cancers, lower differentiation, invasion to outside serosa, advanced clinical stage and lymph node metastasis (all P<0.05), but was similar in terms of age and gender (P>0.05). Survival analysis showed that 3-year survival rate of patients with positive HMGB1 expression was significantly lower as compared to those with negative HMGB1 expression (56.1% vs. 85.7%, P=0.021), meanwhile it was significantly lower in patients with co-expression in nucleus and cytoplasm as compared to those with simple nuclear expression (41.4% vs. 75.0%, P=0.013).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>HMGB1 expression in colorectal cancer is high, and its positive rate increases with the low differentiation, invasion and metastasis. HMGB1 co-expression in nucleus and cytoplasm indicates poor prognosis of colorectal cancer patients.</p>

ABSTRACT

To establish an HPLC method for determination of dactylorhin A and militarine in Cremastrae Pseudobulbus/Pleiones Pseudobulbus. The analysis was achieved on an Alltech Prevail C18 column (4. 6 mm x 250 mm, 5 microm) using a mobile phase of acetonitrile (A), water (B) gradient elution in a total run time of 35 min (0 min, 20:80; 30 min, 55:45; 35 min, 55:45) and a diode array detector was set at 224 nm. The flow rate was 0.8 mL x min(-1). The assay displayed good linearity over the concentration range of 0.257-9.95 microg (r = 0.999 8), and 0.128-10.27 microg (r = 0.999 9), respectively. The average recoveries (n = 9) were 94.70% and 102.8% for dactylorhin A and militarine, respectively. The method is accurate, quick, simple and reproducibility. It can be used for the quality control of Pleione bulbocodioides and Pleione yunnanensis.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effect of high mobility group box-1 (high mobility group box B 1, HMGB1) on the invasive and metastatic abilities of gastric cancer cell line MGC-803 and analyze the possible mechanisms.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>HMGB1 gene targeting siRNA was designed and synthesized, and HMGB1 siRNA oligonucleotides were transfected into the MGC-803 cells with Lipofectamine 2000. The invasive and migratory abilities were detected by transwell assay and scratch assay. The Matrigel matrix glue adhesive ability of MGC-803 cells was evaluated by MTT assay. NF-κB activity was detected by electrophoretic mobility shift assay. The mRNA and protein levels of HMGB1 and MMP-9 were determined by RT-PCR and Western blot, respectively.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The siRNA down-regulated the levels of HMGB1 mRNA and protein. Compared with that of the control group, the number of invasive (142.7 ± 3.4 /view vs. 303.5 ± 4.3/view) and migratory (293.7 ± 4.4/view vs. 445.5 ± 5.6/view) cells was significantly increased (P < 0.05) and the adhesive ability of MGC-803 cells to Matrigel was significantly elevated (33.4 ± 0.03% vs. 57.4 ± 4.2%, P < 0.05). In addition, silencing of HMGB1 gene significantly inhibited the activity of NF-κB and the relative expression folds of mRNA (0.2 ± 0.1 vs. 1.4 ± 0.4, P < 0.05)and protein (0.4 ± 0.1 vs. 2.3 ± 0.7, P < 0.05) of MMP-9.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Silencing of HMGB1 can effectively inhibit the invasion and migration of gastric cancer cells and this effect of HMGB1 may be partly due to its regulation of NF-κB and MMP-9 expressions.</p>
